Instructions

Soak chia seeds with bean water, or vegetable stock or water.
In a pot, on medium high heat sear mushrooms in olive oil for 6-8 minutes stirring often. When they start to brown add celery, leeks and garlic, sage, rosemary. Saute another 8 minutes or so until leeks soften. Add salt and white pepper, set aside in a large bowl.
Process bread crumbs to somewhere between a coarse and fine meal. Add sunflower seeds and process just enough to break seeds down a bit. Remove from processor adding to the leek mushroom mixture.
Process beans until chunky smooth add to the bowl.
Into the soaked chia seeds, mix Better than Boullion Paste and vinegar until totally incorporated. Mix into the bowl with all other ingredients.
With a scoop or your hands form patties and place on a baking sheet with parchment or a baking sheet. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.
At this point you can refrigerate up to 3 days before serving.
To serve: Fry patties over medium high heat with 2-3 tablespoons of avocado oil, 3-5 minutes each side until a golden crust forms. Add more oil as needed.

Notes

Toast sunflower seeds in a single layer at 350 for 10-13 minutes.

Salt is going to depend on if your beans are salted, sea salt is less salty then table salt.
